Before assigning a focus area, you will need to add students to your Legends of Learning account.
For targeted instruction within Awakening, teachers can assign focus areas for students! Assigning a focus area in Awakening provides students with fun and impactful learning that can continue happening at home at their own pace. Focus areas can be differentiated per student, allowing for truly personalized learning!
To get started, click Awakening on the navigation menu.
Then, select Assign Focus.
Once on the Focus Area page, you can search for students by name or filter by group.
To select the focus area(s) for an individual student, click the Assign button.
To assign the same focus area for multiple students, select the students for which you would like to assign the same focus area using the check boxes next to the student names.
After selecting the students, click on the Bulk Assign button.
Choose either Math or Science.
Then, search for the standard(s) you want to assign. You can search by keyword, topic, or standard code.
Click the focus area to add it to the list of topics your students will be assigned in Awakening. You can select multiple topics.
When selecting multiple topics, you have the option to drag and drop topics using the black dots on the right to further customize your student's progression order. The order in which you place the topics is the order in which your students will have to progress through the topics within Awakening.
After selecting the topic(s) you wish to assign and setting the order, you can click Assign Focus.
Each student will display the number of assigned focus areas. Hover your mouse over this field to see the assigned standards.
NOTE:
Students will experience content related to the assigned focus areas during beastie battles and other activities within the Awakening School and Awakening Town.
You can assign all students in a group the same focus area by filtering the list by student groups and selecting all students in the group.
Focus areas can always be changed or reassigned at your discretion.
There is no limit to the number of topics that can be assigned to students at a time.
If you assigned both math and science focus areas, students will be prompted to choose what subject they want to focus on when they sign in.
